O.N.S Menswear Makes Versatile, Packable Gear For Modern Urbanites

What’s a man to do when he needs to pack for a trip and has no way of keeping his suits crisp and his attire wrinkle-free? Finding suitable clothing options for a nomad is a tough task, especially when you need to dress up and look sharp. New York City-based men’s lifestyle brand O.N.S Clothing is filling a much-needed niche in the men’s fashion world by providing the modern man with chic, quality products to ease the everyday stress that comes with living life on the road.

The O.N.S approach comfortably rides the line of sophisticated and functional, which are both extremely important for those working on the go. The last thing you want is to arrive at your destination then pull a cramped pair of trousers and a suit jacket out of your weekender bag, only to find your fit is wrinkled and creased in all the wrong places.

We’ll begin with our preferred ensemble: the Conduit Packable Blazer and the Niles Packable Trouser. Like we mentioned before, it’s a pain to deal with wrinkled dress clothes when you’re on the road. If you bring the Conduit blazer with you, you’ll never have to worry about that again.

This blazer dons a single lapel, two-button, relaxed fit that feels at home whether you’re out to lunch with clients or bustling in the boardroom. It’s made with a wrinkle-free and water-resistant fabric that will quickly become your favorite travel companion, and it’s delivered with a packable bag for easy storage and transport. The Niles trousers are made with the same wrinkle-free fabric to ensure you always have a crisp and impressive go-to fit away from home.

And, if you’re a little taken back by the price tag, O.N.S offers a 20% discount when you purchase two items or more, which means you can get the aforementioned pair together and save a little moolah.

You’ll want tofind a range of lightweight options that are easy to pack and offer the versatility you need for compiling multiple looks on the road.
